  • the plurality of REs in each group may be different in both time domain and frequency domain.
  • precoder cycling is performed by using four REs, namely, an RE corresponding to an OFDM symbol #0 and a subcarrier #0, an RE corresponding to the OFDM symbol #0 and a subcarrier #1, an RE corresponding to an OFDM symbol #1 and the subcarrier #1, and an RE corresponding to the OFDM #1 and the subcarrier #1, as a group.
  • examples are not enumerated herein one by one.
  • the precoder cycling is a highly reliable transmission scheme.
  • the precoder cycling is different from the transmit diversity described in the transmission scheme 2. Specifically, in the precoder cycling, transmit diversity preprocessing does not need to be performed on an original spatial flow, and a diversity gain is obtained during precoding.
  • precoder cycling can reduce the process of transmit diversity preprocessing (that is, generating at least two spatial flows by using one spatial flow), so that complexity of processing a spatial flow is reduced, and a diversity gain can be obtained.
  • the network device After processing to-be-transmitted spatial flows by using the transmission schemes listed above, the network device obtains the plurality of precoded data flows corresponding to the plurality of spatial flows.
  • the network device may process data by using only the transmission schemes of spatial multiplexing and precoder cycling; may process data by using only the transmission schemes of precoder cycling and transmit diversity; or may process data by using the transmission scheme of precoder cycling and another existing transmission scheme, or even a transmission scheme that may be used in future.
  • the network device obtains the plurality of precoded data flows after precoding the plurality of spatial flows (for example, including the plurality of spatial flows homed to the transmission scheme 1, the transmission scheme 2, and the transmission scheme 3 in the foregoing description).
  • the network device sends the plurality of precoded data flows.
  • the terminal devices receive the plurality of precoded data flows.
  • a precoding vector corresponding to each spatial flow may be designed to be orthogonal to a channel of another receiving device (for example, the terminal device) other than a target receiving device of the spatial flow. Therefore, when the plurality of precoded data flows reach each receive end device, in addition to a precoded data flow that points to the receive end device and that is in the plurality of precoded data flows, other precoded data flows become zero after being transmitted on a channel from a transmit end device to the receive end device.
  • it is difficult to reach the foregoing ideal state so that the other precoded data flows cannot become zero but are greatly reduced when reaching the receive end device, causing small interference to the receive end device.
  • the method 300 further includes:
  • the network device sends downlink control information (downlink control information, DCI), where the DCI may carry indication information of a transmission scheme.
  • DCI downlink control information
  • the transmission scheme may be indicated in a DCI format, or may be indicated by using the corresponding indication information carried in the DCI.
  • each terminal device determines, based on received DCI, a transmission scheme to which a precoded data flow sent to the terminal device is homed, and demodulates the received precoded data flow based on the transmission scheme and a received precoded demodulation reference signal, to restore a data flow sent to the terminal device.
  • a transmission scheme by using which the third terminal device receives the third precoded data flow sent by the network device is spatial multiplexing.
  • the third terminal device may demodulate the third precoded data flow based on a received precoded demodulation reference signal corresponding to the third spatial flow.
  • W i represents a precoding matrix of a data flow sent to the third terminal device
  • W j represents a precoding vector of a data flow sent to other terminal devices (for example, the first terminal device and the second terminal device).
  • the receiver noise is zero.
  • the third terminal device may process the received signal by using various receiving algorithms, to reduce interference to zero. Specifically, the third terminal device may design each column vector of the precoding matrix W i of the third spatial flow to be orthogonal to each row vector of H j , so that ⁇ j ⁇ i HW j s j is zero, that is, interference is zero. In this way, an equivalent channel matrix may be estimated based on a received DMRS corresponding to a third data flow, and a data flow sent by the network device to the third terminal device may be obtained through demodulation based on the estimated equivalent channel matrix.
  • the network device may map the precoded demodulation reference signal and the precoded data flow to a same RB and send the RB to the third terminal device. Therefore, the equivalent channel matrix may be accurately estimated based on the precoded demodulation reference signal, to help the third terminal device demodulate the received precoded data flow.
  • the third terminal device can restore the third data flow from the received signal through the precoding processing.
  • the network device implements spatial multiplexing through precoding.
  • a transmission scheme by using which the second terminal device receives a precoded data flow sent by the network device is transmit diversity.
  • the second terminal device may demodulate a second precoded data flow based on a received precoded demodulation reference signal corresponding to the second spatial flow.
  • the second spatial flow includes at least two spatial flows obtained by performing transmit diversity on an original spatial flow, and the at least two spatial flows are associated with each other. Therefore, the second precoded data flow cannot be demodulated by separating precoded data flows corresponding to the at least two spatial layers.
  • the second terminal device can estimate an equivalent channel matrix of the second precoded data flow based on a received second precoded demodulation reference signal, to obtain a second data flow through demodulation. It should be noted that, the second terminal device obtains at least two spatial flows through demodulating the second precoded data flow. After obtaining the at least two spatial flows through demodulation, the second terminal device may combine the at least two spatial flows into one spatial flow (that is, the original spatial flow), to obtain data bits.
  • a transmission scheme by using which the first terminal device receives a first precoded data flow sent by the network device is precoder cycling.
  • the first terminal device may demodulate the first precoded data flow based on a received precoded demodulation reference signal corresponding to the first spatial flow.
  • demodulation on the third precoded data flow is also based on the RE, and demodulation needs to be performed based on a precoding vector of a demodulation reference signal corresponding to each RE.
  • a specific method in which the first terminal device demodulates, based on a precoding vector of a demodulation reference signal corresponding to each RE, data carried on the corresponding RE is similar to the specific method in which the third terminal device demodulates, based on a precoding vector of a demodulation reference signal corresponding to each RB, data carried on the RB. Both the methods can be implemented by using the prior art. For brevity, details are not described herein again.
  • the terminal devices can restore the spatial flow from the received precoded data flow.
  • the network device may send a precoded data flow to more or less terminal devices.
  • Transmission schemes by using which the precoded data flow is sent to the terminal devices may include but are not limited to the schemes listed above, and moreover, different data flows may use a same transmission scheme or different transmission schemes. This is not particularly limited in this application.
  • the plurality of spatial flows homed to the at least two transmission schemes are precoded and sent to different terminal devices, so that a spatial degree of freedom is improved, and based on different channel quality, an appropriate transmission scheme can be flexibly used. Moreover, the transmission scheme of precoder cycling is used, and reliability of data transmission can be improved.
